Greek Lemon Chicken

Add chicken to a large saute pan with a about a tablespoon of butter and 1/2 cup or so of water and reheat on medium heat until warmed through, add more water if needed as the water in the pan will form a sort of gravy which is great!

2. For Orzo Salad: Reheat in microwave for 1-2 minutes, stirring halfway through, or in a saute pan with a bit of oil on medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes until warmed through. Season with olive oil, lemon, and more salt if desired. Can also be enjoyed cold.
